Our voting system is broken, but it doesn't have to stay that way.

Elected officials shouldn't just represent their base. They should represent the whole electorate.
Unfortunately, in most systems the only voters with any leverage are the ones who voted for the winner. Voters who prefer others have no power.
STAR Voting changes that.

Each election we watch the rise and fall of 3rd parties seeking to offer viable alternatives to the duopoly. Every cycle they fail to break through. Two party domination isn't caused by a lack of viable 3rd parties or candidates. It's caused by our outdated voting method. 1/6 🧵

Ranked Choice Voting has polarized the voting reform movement for years and it's not over. As another wave of repeal and ban bills gear up, let's look back on the concerns raised that led RCV to be rejected in every state where it was on the ballot in 2024. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_a6b...

There’s no sound democracy without a sound voting method, and our current choose-one plurality voting is not it. Consider following or donating to @starvoting.bsky.social or @equalvote.bsky.social to support voting reform across the country! 💫🗳️
It's giving season and our team is drafting our holiday wish list: 1) stable funding, 2) the chance to scale up our staff, 3) launching new programs!

Solidarity between advocates for different voting reforms is essential and in order to get reform passed we need to listen to the science and work together.

RCV advocates. Please read this incredibly courageous post and call to action.
I'm Exec Dir of RCV Montana. Five years ago, I started pursuing RCV in Montana w/ a desire to give voters more choice, empower third parties & independents, & reduce the mudslinging.
I'm abandoning the RCV movement, still dedicated to reform. Cordially, I invite you to join me
